Russia’s justice ministry said on Friday it had revoked the registration of 15 foreign organisations, including Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch (HRW).

The Russian units of the organisations, which also included the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace,"were excluded due to the discovery of violations of the current legislation of the Russian Federation," the ministry said in a statement.

The Russian units of the organisations, which also included the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, “were excluded due to the discovery of violations of the current legislation of the Russian Federation,” the ministry said in a statement. Russia has repeatedly denied conflict crimes allegations by Ukraine and Western countries during its six-week-long invasion of Ukraine and denies targeting civilians.

“The Russian government had already made it abundantly clear that it has no use for any facts regarding the protection of civilians in Ukraine. This is just one small further proof of that,” it said on Twitter.The Kyiv government and its Western allies reject that as a false pretext for an unjustified invasion.
